Simple Quilt; Bold Fabric
I have never used fabric like this before: bold, large prints. I designed this quilt myself – it is just rectangles – no triangles or curves. I have started making quilts that are simple in design, since piecing is not my favorite part of quilting; the quilting is my favorite part. The simpler the design, the faster the quilt comes together, the faster I can get to quilting it.
I machine quilted this. I quilted large “retro” flowers, which I thought matched the look and feel of the fabric.
The corners of the binding gave me a little bit of trouble; but every quilt needs to have a few mistakes – it proves it is homemade, right?
I made this quilt for a friend of mine to celebrate her divorce from her husband who was a complete ass. Good riddance!
